Graphite Seal Ring for Mechanical Pump
Product Overview
Jincheng graphite seal rings are self-lubricating carbon-graphite components designed for mechanical seals in pumps, compressors, and rotating equipment. These seal rings provide excellent wear resistance and low friction operation, even in high-temperature and corrosive fluid applications.
Our graphite seal rings are manufactured from resin-impregnated carbon graphite materials, offering impermeability and long service life. Custom sizes and special geometries are available to fit various mechanical seal designs and pump specifications.
Key Features
- Self-lubricating properties for dry running capability
- Excellent wear resistance extends seal life and reduces maintenance
- Low friction coefficient for energy efficient operation
- Corrosion resistant to most chemicals and process fluids
- High temperature resistance up to 400°C in air, higher in inert atmosphere
- Impermeable structure with resin impregnation for zero leakage
- Precision ground surfaces for perfect seal face flatness
- Available in various grades for different pressure and speed conditions

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between resin-impregnated and metal-impregnated graphite seals?
A: Resin-impregnated graphite is used for general chemical and water applications. Metal-impregnated (antimony, babbitt) graphite is used for high-pressure and high-temperature applications where dry running may occur.
Q2: What is the required surface finish for seal faces?
A: Mechanical seal faces typically require surface flatness of 3 light bands (0.0009mm) and surface roughness Ra of 0.1μm or better. We provide precision grinding to these specifications.
Q3: Can you manufacture custom seal ring sizes?
A: Yes, we produce custom-sized seal rings based on your drawings or samples. Please provide dimensions, material grade, and application details for quotation.
Q4: What is the typical lead time for custom seal rings?
A: Standard sizes are in stock. Custom sizes typically require 1-2 weeks for production and precision grinding.
